Steaming Into 2017

Hello 2017.

I was surfing the internet today looking for inspiring blog
posts for the first roundup of the year and an avalanche of great thoughts from
the publishing blogosphere came thick and fast.

While the Southern Hemisphere is taking off to the beach and
shutting down for Summer, the Northern Hemisphere, where the bulk of the
Traditional Publishers have their head offices, are planning and implementing
changes.

If you are involved in publishing
with a small press PLEASE READ IT! Even if you are not, you should read it
because this scenario will be played out again and again with publishers big
and small. This is a publishing economics lesson!

To Finish,

Joanna Penn interviewed Kris Rusch recently and a fantastic
interview it was too. Over the years I have learned a lot about how the
business of writing works from Kris and Dean, her husband. Kris is free with her advice and time on her blog
and there really is no one better to provide you with the long view in
publishing and writing. 2017 is a new year. Kris talks about empowering authors to go out there and kick butt.
